5 Safety instructions5.1 General Power Tool Safety Warningsa)

WARNINGRead all safety warnings and instructions. Failureto follow the warnings and instructions may resultin electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save allwarnings and instructions for future reference.The term “power tool” in the warnings refers toyour mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

5.1.1 Work area safetya) Keepwork area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark

areas invite accidents.b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-

spheres, such as in the presence of flammableliquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparkswhich may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operat-ing a power tool. Distractions can cause you to losecontrol.

5.1.2 Electrical safetya) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in anyway. Do not use any adapterplugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Un-modified plugs and matching outlets will reduce riskof electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or groundedsurfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges andrefrigerators. There is an increased risk of electricshock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-tions. Water entering a power tool will increase therisk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord forcarrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges ormoving parts.Damaged or entangled cords increasethe risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use anextension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use ofa cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk ofelectric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location isunavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the riskof electric shock.

5.1.3 Personal safetya) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool. Donot use a power tool while you are tired or underthe influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. Amoment of inattention while operating power toolsmay result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always weareye protection. Protective equipment such as dustmask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection used for appropriate conditionswill reducepersonal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switchis in the off‐position before connecting to powersource and/or battery pack, picking up or carryingthe tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on theswitch or energising power tools that have the switchon invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turn-ing the power tool on. A wrench or a key left at-tached to a rotating part of the power tool may resultin personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-ance at all times. This enables better control of thepower tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing orjewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and glovesaway from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelleryor long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dustextraction and collection facilities, ensure theseare connected and properly used. Use of dustcollection can reduce dust-related hazards.

5.1.4 Power tool use and carea) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct

power tool for your application. The correct powertool will do the job better and safer at the rate forwhich it was designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does notturn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot becontrolled with the switch is dangerous and must berepaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power sourceand/or the battery pack from the power toolbefore making any adjustments, changingaccessories, or storing power tools. Suchpreventive safety measures reduce the risk ofstarting the power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with thepower tool or these instructions to operate thepower tool. Power tools are dangerous in the handsof untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment orbinding of moving parts, breakage of parts andany other condition that may affect the powertool’s operation. If damaged, have the power toolrepaired before use.Many accidents are caused bypoorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are lesslikely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.in accordance with these instructions taking intoaccount the working conditions and the work tobe performed. Use of the power tool for opera-tions different from those intended could result in ahazardous situation.

5.1.5 Servicea) Have your power tool servicedby a qualified repair

person using only identical replacement parts.This will ensure that the safety of the power tool ismaintained.

5.2 Hammer safety warningsa) Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause

hearing loss.b) Use auxiliary handles, if supplied with the tool.

Loss of control can cause personal injury.c) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,

when performing an operation where the cuttingaccessory may contact hidden wiring or its owncord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire maymake exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"and could give the operator an electric shock.

5.3 Additional safety precautions5.3.1 Personal safetya) Always hold the power tool securely with both

hands on the grips provided. Keep the grips dry,clean and free from oil and grease.

b) Breathing protection must be worn if the powertool is used without a dust removal system forwork that creates dust.

c) Improve the blood circulation in your fingers byrelaxing your hands and exercising your fingersduring breaks between working.

d) Avoid touching rotating parts. Switch the powertool on only after bringing it into position at theworkpiece. Touching rotating parts, especially rotat-ing insert tools, may lead to injury.

e) Always lead the supply cord and extension cordaway from the power tool to the rear while work-ing. This helps to avoid tripping over the cord whileworking.

f) Children must be instructed not to play with thepower tool.

g) The power tool is not intended for use by children,by debilitated persons or thosewho have receivedno instruction or training.

h) WARNING: Some dust created by grinding, sand-ing, cutting and drilling contains chemicals knownto cause cancer, birth defects, infertility or otherreproductive harm; or serious and permanent res-piratory or other injury. Some examples of thesechemicals are: lead from lead-based paints, crys-talline silica from bricks, concrete and other masonryproducts and natural stone, arsenic and chromiumfrom chemically-treated lumber. Your risk from theseexposures varies, depending on how often you dothis type of work. To reduce exposure to thesechemicals, the operator and bystanders shouldwork in a well-ventilated area, work with ap-proved safety equipment, such as respiratory pro-tection appropriate for the type of dust generated,and designed to filter out microscopic particlesand direct dust away from the face and body.Avoid prolonged contact with dust. Wear protec-

tive clothing and wash exposed areas with soapand water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth,eyes, or to remain on your skin may promote absorp-tion of harmful chemicals.

5.3.2 Power tool use and carea) Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to

secure the workpiece. The workpiece is thus heldmore securely than by hand and both hands remainfree to operate the power tool.

b) Check that the insert tools used are compatiblewith the chuck system and that they are securedin the chuck correctly.

c) Switch the power tool off and unplug the supplycord in the event of a power failure or interruptionin the electric supply. This will prevent accidentalrestarting when the electric power returns.

5.3.3 Electrical safety

a) Before beginning work, check the working area(e.g. using a metal detector) to ensure that noconcealed electric cables or gas and water pipesare present. External metal parts of the power toolmay become live, for example, when an electric cableis damaged accidentally. This presents a serious riskof electric shock.

b) Check the power tool’s supply cord at regularintervals and have it replaced by a qualified spe-cialist if found to be damaged. If the power tool’ssupply cord is damaged it must be replaced witha specially-prepared supply cord available fromHilti Customer Service. Check extension cordsat regular intervals and replace them if found tobe damaged. Do not touch the supply cord orextension cord if it is damaged while working.Disconnect the supply cord plug from the poweroutlet. Damaged supply cords or extension cordspresent a risk of electric shock.

c) Dirty or dusty power tools which have been usedfrequently for work on conductive materialsshould be checked at regular intervals at a HiltiService Center. Under unfavorable circumstances,dampness or dust adhering to the surface ofthe power tool, especially dust from conductivematerials, may present a risk of electric shock.

d) When working outdoors with an electric toolcheck to ensure that the tool is connected to theelectric supply by way of a ground fault circuitinterrupter (RCD) with a rating of max. 30 mA(tripping current). Use of a ground fault circuitinterrupter reduces the risk of electric shock.

e) Use of a ground fault circuit interrupter (RCDresidual current device) with a maximum trippingcurrent of 30 mA is recommended.
